This allows us to return a proper error code in case we spot an underflow.

This is not worth the churn.  In a way, it's worse because userspace can spam
the living snot out of the kernel log by retrying the ioctl().

Since underflow can happen if and only if there's a KVM bug, and a pretty bad one
at that, just make the original WARN_ON a KVM_BUG_ON.  That will kill the VM and
also provide the WARN_ON_ONCE behavior that we probably want.

Will do.

Thanks,
Maciej
